Assumption 0 analysis: comparative phylogenetic studies in the age of complexity [PDF]
, 2008 Darwin's panoramic view of biology encompassed two metaphors: the phylogenetic tree, pointing to relatively linear (and divergent) complexity, and the tangled bank, pointing to reticulated (and convergent) complexity.

Basic problems of biogeography
Natural History Sciences, 2018 Darwin interpreted most of biogeographic distributions as a consequence of dispersal events. The dispersionist approach lasted till the half of the XX century, but then an alternative paradigm arose: vicariantist biogeography.

Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Genetic structure within marine species may be driven by local adaptation to their environment, or alternatively by historical processes, such as geographic isolation.

Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Phylogeographic forces driving evolution of sea‐dispersed plants are often influenced by regional and species characteristics, although not yet deciphered at a large spatial scale for many taxa like the mangrove species Heritiera littoralis.

But they move! Vicariance and dispersal in southern South America: Using two methods to reconstruct the biogeography of a clade of lizards endemic to South America. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 This study aims to identify events that modeled the historical biogeography of Phymaturus, using three methodologies: Spatial Analysis of Vicariance (VIP), Statistical Dispersal-Vicariance Analysis (S-DIVA), and Bayesian Binary Method MCMC (BBM).

Phylogeny, biogeography and diversification patterns of side-necked turtles (Testudines: Pleurodira) [PDF]
, 2018 Pleurodires or side-necked turtles are today restricted to freshwater environments of South America, Africa– Madagascar and Australia, but in the past they were distributed much more broadly, being found also on Eurasia, India and North America, and ...

Vicarious goal satiation [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, 2011 A signature feature of self-regulation is that once a goal is satiated, it becomes deactivated, thereby allowing people to engage in new pursuits. The present experiments provide evidence for vicarious goal satiation, a novel phenomenon in which individuals experience "post-completion goal satiation" as a result of unwittingly taking on another person ...
